School starts tomorrow and that's the major trigger in my cutting. The people there, The bullshit, just piles on stress which makes me cut. I don't want to cut anymore but school triggers it. I know it's my fault for cutting myself it's just what should I do because school is just horrible and it triggers my cutting. What should I do?

First off, do not bring a blade or anything to school with you.

When you get the urge, remind yourself you're stronger than the urges. School is only a short part of your life and it goes by faster than you think. The first day back usually caused stress and anxiety for everyone.

You can get through the day. ^_^
Don't worry, I have school tomorrow and I feel the same way. You're not alone.

I've never brought a blade to school, I use to count down the seconds until the school day is over then go To my room and ya know.. Cut.

Well, that's a start. Try not to count, just ride the day out. Focus on going through the day as normally as possible. Don't look at it like the day will for sure be terrible. Be hopeful and it will make things easier.

I always think of a day as a new start. Its just people's remarks aboutme and stuff that puts me down. I know the just ignore them thing, certain remarks you just can't ignore.

Good luck on your first day! I'm starting school tomorrow too and super nervous about people triggering me, so I feel ya! I do my best to ignore people's comments, but that doesn't always work. Luckily, I have a really good friend I always talk to if I can't let something go. Just remember that it's only high school. Things will get better in college.

I know how you feel. School is my trigger, too. It started again two weeks ago, and I've cut about 18 times since... I'm trying hard to quit again.

Try to give yourself distractions to keep from cutting. Or find a new outlet. I often write when I feel the urge to cut.

You know what, it goes by quickly. I remember eighth grade graduation like it was yesterday and I'm going into eleventh grade tomorrow.

It's a very short time then you move onto better things. High school is like it's own world, almost. Just remember that the shite you put up with is temporary.
